a little advantage to mccain.bama took the lead in the polls after that and one reason for that people said he came over as , angry, fidgety, and rigid. and he never recovered from that. gloria: you also write about the threshold a presidential candidate needs to cross. for barack obama, that may have been a threshold. talk about that. the candidate, people are looking at them eye-to-eye on their television sets. jim: that is the key to the whole thing. issue out case, the there, spoken and unspoken, was, is this guy ready to be president? is he cool under pressure? can this guy handle himself? up until the debate, they had seen the candidates in their own settings. political events, staged events by their own campaigns or whatever. alright now, how is obama going to handle himself against john mccain? now we are in the big leagues. let's see. well, obama presented himself as somebody who is calm, cool, much lighter, and confident. the other thing was, he had the confidence it took to be president. those things he

misses mccain, thank you -- mrs. mccain, thank you for talking to us. the perception that a a lot of young people is there is an untouchable ring of governmental and economic leads in this country that not only benefit but actively participate in sex trafficking. jeffrey epstein, and robert kraft was arrested on trafficking charges. we -- in terms of this as a grassroots movement to push and combat this issue are these power players a priority right now? can we even touch them? or is that a pipedream we need to address in the future? cindy: it is like everything, it hides in plain sight. epstein was hiding in plain sight. we all knew what he was doing, -- no legalo one aspects that would go after him. all of a sudden someone said bs, we are not afraid of you, what you are doing is not only wrong, but illegal. it is like a house of cards. it is going to start tumbling, and these guys, if they do not leave the country number one, they will get caught. not only will they get caught, they will be made examples of, and that is exactly what we should be doing

the widow of the late john mccain, whose voice is missed these days more than ever, cindy mccain is a leader in her own right, a tireless advocate of victims, a form of modern-day slavery. she is an inspiration to many. how appropriate that the mccain institute prides itself on character driven leadership. cindy mccain embodies that kind of leadership each and every day. joining her on stage is nicole, a professor at georgetown university and leading voice on humans rights causes. nicole worked at the state department, one of her areas of responsibility was the fight against trafficking in persons with an emphasis on the three p's, prosecution, protection, and prevention. it is my pleasure and honor to welcome them both. >> >> thank you so much, and thank you to fiu for this wonderful conference and for all of you to attending. thank you to the green family for making this possible. it is an extraordinary opportunity to talk about these issues. i was delighted that there was the fore thought to give this topic such prominence. i know we are between dinner, we also know that this is a

mccain, the widow of senator john mccain, discussed human trafficking and its laboring at the -- and slavery at the international florida state of the world conference in miami. this is 45 minutes. i'll start by congratulating fiu together at the mccain institute and the american as you for organizing such a great event and bringing such expertise and talent to miami. i'm impressed i the turnout in the audience and by the impressive lineup of speakers you have attracted here to fiu and to miami. this is an intellectually stimulating way to start the new year on some of the most pressing issues facing us as a nation, and as a community. issues involving latin america and the caribbean are of obvious interest in getting our immigrant population in miami the very things that formed who we are today. >> immigration policy in this country is of great interest. but, also given the globalized world we live in, are matters involving transatlantic relations, threats from russia, and china. the danger emanating from north korea and challenges in the , middle east. miami itself is a major inter

with obama and mccain, you saw mccain would not talk to him. is that engagement easy? at this point these are people who do not like each other. jim: i hadn't thought about it, but that may have been exactly what the problem was. it withain had just had obama and his people.they about him, hegs was tired of it, and he didn't feel like having a "civilized" exchange. that was not canned. obama, what look at we know about him since he has been president, that was the real barack obama on the stage, too. that manner he demonstrated in the first debate is the manner he demonstrated as president of the united states. the thing we all have to keep in mind, and i remind people all the time, there are very few accidents that become candidates for president of the united states. these people have been through meat grinders and mix masters. they have been tumbled and called every name of the book -- in the book, they have been accused of everything, they have had people yelling at them, and they have been tested, and tested, and tested by the time they get on stage in front of de

mccain-feingold. it was a pretty acrimonious battle. what is your relationship with john mccain to a? >> guest: very close. that's a good example of having a fight over issues that was about ten years it was pretty stressful between us at various points. i called him up the day after he won the supreme court. watching a republican house and republican senate passing a bill and i was lost in the supreme court, called them th him the dr and said congratulations. we found that there were a lot of other things we could work on together. le became fast friends and allies and that is the way the senate ought to work and frequently does. i'm not sure if many people in the public know that. >> host: do you consider john mccain a hero? >> guest: absolutely. >> host: i'd like to ask you to give me one or two sentences about the following united states senators. the first that comes to your mind about henry clay. >> guest: the great compromiser. >> host: lyndon baines johnson. >> guest: as a senator, overrated.

like mccain up, i would vote for the democrats. i could not vote for obama after the second term because of what he did to my health care system, which is basically destroy it. decent, cheap insurance anymore. health care has been destroyed by obama. what trump offered, and i saw it early, is he came out, and he -- willing to step out on stepped on the political hot rails and not get electrocuted. he has done some crazy stuff, but he has done so much good i have to say he has a seriously good chance of getting reelected. what i would say that i'm going to do is -- because i am in pennsylvania i cannot vote in the primary across parties. i'm going to to switch my registration and make sure i vote against joe biden. i do not to see biden. to beate only potential trump and that is a longshot so i am going to vote against biden and switch back and vote for trump this year. he is not a perfect president. i compare him to abe lincoln. anyone who is a student of history will know that abe lincoln was treated by the establishment the way t

because i knew he was a rhino and i wanted the republicans to know, if you put a candidate take mccainup going to book for the democrat just to see what i get of course i could not boat Ãvote for obama the second term because of what he did to my health care system.which is basically destroy it. we know you can't buy descent affordable healthcare anymore but what trump offer, and i saw it early, was that he came out and he was willing to step on the political cotton rails and not get electrocuted. the guy has done some crazy stuff but he's done so much good stuff that i would have to say that he has a seriously good chance of getting reelected and what i would say i'm going to do is because in pennsylvania i cannot vote in the primary across parties and the primary i'm going to switch my registration and make sure i vote against joe biden i don't want to see biden he is the only potential to be trump and i think that's a long shot so i'm going to vote against biden and then of course switch back and vote for truck this year. he's not a perfect president, i compare him to abe helincoln.

"the view" has a meghan mccain problem. the problem is with miss mccain still on the show.re's not much to enjoy. again, repeat, mccain doesn't even like trump. so it doesn't matter if you think you are reasonable today, as a republican. the left will always come for you, in the end. the positive coverage, people receiving now like mitt, susan, lisa, lamar, that's all because the left hates trump more than you do. when he's gone, so will your green room passed to all of the networks. heck, the left is so consumed with hatred for trump at all of you who support him, they won't even tolerate a hint of objectivity or balance. earlier this week, msnbc's larry o'donnell spit his angry bile at the liberal cnn. >> one-third of the people on their payroll love trump. it's one of the reason trump kind of wants you to watch cnn instead of msnbc, because we don't bring on myers. i don't bring on a liar. i won't do that. >> laura: never. >> donald trump loan documents there show that he has cosigne cosigners, the cosigners are russian oligarchs. >> laura: what? really? >> last night on

a candidate like mccain up, i'm going to vote for the democrat just to see what i get. of course i could not vote for obama for the second term because of what he did to my healthcare system, which is basically destroy it. we have noticed that you can't buy good decent cheap insurance anymore or healthcare insurance has been destroyed by obama. but what trump offered, and i saw it early, was that he came out and he was willing to step on the political hot rails and not get electrocuted. you know, the guy's done some crazy stuff, but he's done so much good stuff that i would have to say that he has a seriously good chance of getting re-elected, and what i would say i'm going to do is -- because in pennsylvania i cannot vote in the primary -- across parties in the primary, i'm going to switch my registration and make sure i vote against joe biden. i don't want to see biden. he's the only potential to beat trump, and i think that's a long shot. so i'm going to vote against biden, and then of course switch back and vote for trump this year. he's not a perfect president. i c

what is your relationship with john mccain today? >> very close. that is an example of being able to have a fight over issues that went on about ten years. it was really pretty stressful between us at various points, but i called him up the day after he won in the second quarter, one of the worst days of my life actually was watching a republican house and republican senate and a republican president passed thea bill that i was opposed to become a deeply opposed to invite was the plaintiff at the supreme court, called him up the day after and i said congratulations, you won and i lost and we found about there were a lot of other things we could work on together and we became best friends and allies on a whole variety of different things and that is the way the senate ought to work and frequently it does. i'm not sure if many people from the public know that. >> do you consider john mccain an american hero? >> absolutely. >> i'd like to ask you to give me just one or two sentences about each of the following united states senators, all of them decea

i believe with john mccain ukraine is important. donald trump said the world order talked about by mister schiff has not served us well. people have been writing on the coattails of america doing too much and they should do more but does not by the idea of 10 percent of the military budget comes from the american taxpayer. along with the idea needs to be improved not destroyed. this is world-class. you don't understand in donald trump's world it needs to be reassessed and what john mccain said but it's okay to ask questions about the business dealings but there was a guy have to put in charge of the cabinet one of the most corrupt oligarchs in ukraine. i like president zelensky but to say we should accept everything that happened before president trump basically ignores why he got elected. >> schumer said republicans don't want to hear the truth. >> if you believe, they said that there is no evidence not one witness that hunter biden did anything wrong. but when they tried to call him to the house they said no. so i would say to sen

john mccain, i wasn't a fan. we have a chance of killing obamacare. we almost did it, but somebody unfortunately surprised us with thumbs down. i'm not a fan. he was horrible what he did with repeal and replace. i was never a fan of john mccain, and i never will be. >> this president had nothing to do with protections for pre-existing conditions written into obamacare. as the name implies, that was former president barack obama. and as cnn's fact checker point out the trump administration has not only asked the courts to throw out the affordable care act aka obamacare, they have specifically asked the courts to declare protections for pre-existing conditions unconstitutional. so no protections there. those are the facts. but like i said the tweet is a tell. this president's tweets show his insecurities about impeachment, iran, and the democratic race. and all of it is beginning to come to a boil. the president who said the deadly strike on qassem soleimani was to head off an imminent threat now says it doesn't matter anyway. what does it tell us that

when i interviewed franklin mccain, he said that up until that time, as a young man in north carolina, he felt that his life was worthless and that his parents had lied to him, and the lies that they told him was a great american lie that you can be anything you want to be, and he said as he grew throughout adolescence, he knew that wasn't true, as a 17-year-old black male in north carolina, he knew that that wasn't true. and just as a symbol of how untrue that was, completely different story i was doing several years later, i interviewed a guy called beaufort posey from mississippi, a white guy who became an antiracist who told me i never knew it was illegal to kill a black man until i joined an army. he said until that time i knew it was wrong but i didn't know it was illegal and true enough in mississippi the people who were not to be killing black people were actually the law enforcement agencies so it was not an entirely incredible thing for him to think. so when we go back to franklin mccain, he knows this as as well as beaufort posey does and he said he was angry at his parents

one democrat said to me last night we're looking for our john mccain.sting that you heard senator klobuchar invoke his name as well. they said we're going to wrap ourselves in the american flag until this vote to try to hammer home that point that chairman schiff is making that is essentially we need to have all of the facts here before we have a fair trial. >> and this to me is the fascinating part of all of it. chairman schiff makes the case you've got to be politically courageous, take on your president, take on your base. i think if we learned anything in these last few years, if you are a senator in a swing state, it's not that you have to worry that your base is going to abandon you, it's voters that say they're swing voters, voters that want principle over politics, at the end of the day they vote their politics. so at the end of the day if susan collins comes out and said i did the right thing and the principled thing and democrats in maine say that's so great, susan collins. you say to that democrat are you going to vote for susan collins? of c

this senate has no john mccain. >> that's it. >> the last time we had a cuff vote here where republicans did buck the president was health care. it was a middle of the night moment. i'm sure a lot of our viewers can remember what that picture looks like of mccain down on the senate floor with his thumb down. that was a surprise to mitch mcconnell. the men that were willing to stand up to president trump, the ones who often did actually, john mccain, bob corker, jeff flake, they are gone. the reality as to why they are gone is that they bucked this president and republican voters said, no way. we don't want to put up with it. obviously in the case of mccain, it was a tragic loss. that was a different scenario. however, that underlying reality that made bucking this republican president mittically impossible for all these republicans is why this is playing out the way it's playing out and why what michael steele was just talking through is true. our reporting -- i don't want to get beyond our reporting, there are seve

. >> brennan: all right, senator mccain thank you for lang, mccain, senator mike leon board with it and he joins us now, senator thanks for sticking with us and i know there were some problems with the up link there but we can see and hear you now just fine. .. what senator kaine said is here elected official wanted to get their hand dirty and go on the record to vote for a war which is why congress allowed for this to continue without a new vote on -- can you get other republicans on board with this beyond your receive and rand paul? >> yes. we can. and i believe we will. look, my grievance here is not with the president of the united states. hehe exercised his power with great restraint and respect for the constitution. it is not even really as much with the briefers, even though i didn't love the briefing the other day as it is with congress. congress is the problem. we have to remember that this isn't just about this president or this war. this is about a about the future question of what any president can do to get us into any war a. over many decades congresses and white houses of

i mean mccain is bush's running mate hasn't the man suffered enough and with that i just have 2 more words to say. obama. the and 29 tango donald trump took it to a whole new level the ha ha's from his jokes were meant to slap his opponents hard bread and butter have been. specially raised by the jacksons to remain calm under any condition which will be very important because they've already received subpoenas to appear in adam shifts basement on thursday debbie dingell that's a real beauty she calls me up this is this thing that's ever happened thank you so much she would be so thrilled he's looking to. thank you so much. i said that's ok don't worry about. it he's working. and as a true twitter troll he began to make good use of means. so what then everyone happy happy new year t.v. shows can save plenty of time on planning just fill up air time with have that fall in the white house be like for at least another year the president can keep on taking aim at rivals by fully mastering mean making and be proud of his razor sharp humor and just in case the public's now got a butt to ski

gary starts with franklin mccain right. is one of the young people in greensboro.and therefore young people that started. i think you go back and say i am free three friends, what can i do with three friends. i think that's what they are therefore. they are friends. gary younge: going back to rosa parks. before her, they pleaded get my guilty and they start to go with. wrong side of town, and she is pregnant. a 15 -year-old girl. the dropper. they just offered. they don't just drop her from that protest, which is a strategical question. it is a moral question obviously. they dropper out of history. altogether. when you reinsert her back into history, what you're saying is you are singling her out. you your 15 -year-old girl, what is going to happen to you in terms of all of the bad things that you could do. she is part of the story. another woman has been kicked out. in there is another name but i can't remember. >> when they actually file the federal case, that he segregates on these buses, it is it is called in smith and two other women. parks is not on the case.

john mccain, the eventual nominee, just 13%.e've got a bit of video from governor huckabee on election night. let's watch and then we will come back in here your analysis. tonight what we have seen is a new day in american politics. a new day is needed in american politics. and tonight, it starts here in iowa. but it does not end here. it goes all the way through the other states and ends in 1600 pennsylvania avenue. host: david? guest: well, again, the importance of the religious conservatives in the republican party, huckabee mobilized them. he was a very effective speaker, part politician and part preacher. he came from hope, arkansas where president clinton comes from. the joke in that campaign was what is in the water in hope, arkansas that enables these fiery candidates to come out and do so well? the other thing that ever member the first time the three tickets notion was broken and john mccain did finish fourth. and then went on to win the nomination. first class, coach, standby, and baggage. host: on the democratic side

mccain, the widow of senator john mccain, discussed human trafficking and its laboring at the -- and slavery at the international florida state of the world conference in miami. this is 45 minutes. i'll start by congratulating fiu together at the mccain institute and the american as you for organizing such a great event and bringing such expertise and talent to miami. i'm impressed i the turnout in the audience and by the impressive lineup of

bush and alan keyes, senator mccain bypassed iowa that year.hat should we know about that -- the top three results getters in the state of iowa. john mccain bypassed iowa that your. what should we know about that caucus? mr. yepsen: we are starting to see a notion of three tickets out of iowa. three plane tickets from des moines to manchester. first class, coach, and standby. if you were not in the top three, your chances were limited. you did not get much of a bounce. so that was at work on the republican side. on the democratic side, gore, bradley contest, gore was the winner handily. bradley was more to the left. the issue was health care. what we were starting to see by the time is on the democratic side, while the accusation is made that the whole process pulls democrats too far to the left to get elected in november, it is also true that among different fields of candidates, a more centrist democrat will do well. going back to jimmy carter. there were a couple of candidates to his left in the 1976 campaign. bradley was more on the progres

. >> you know what he's lucky, john mccain is not in the sphat.ld you imagine the fifth and sixth and seventh chores mcconnell could face if john mccabe was still representing the state of arizona. does that mean mitt romney would feel more empowered to stand up in a serious way? >> i would argue there could be somebody who emerges if not a mccain, some republican that does step up and say, we do need to allow this to play out. >> we should remember that the moment that would make for great tv to your question would be if john bolton, the former national security adviser does, in fact testify. that would be great tv. that would be a dramatic moment. i think not getting to that point is a top goal of mitch mcconnl and the white use. nolln necessarily for the democrats, encry >>as for no they h rdil they hav sig up leerspeoplen thy are unhappy about this, and they're voting with their feet and their dollars right now to some extent. by the way, one of the other groups that has to be worried about this, the 30 house democrats who come from districts

the four votes they're targeting were friends of john mccain, very close friends of john mccain. respect him very much. there have been several different ways where the democrats try to get the republicans. we know it, you don't like the way the president conducts business, you don't like the way the president undermines ukraine here, have the courage to buck your leadership and buck your president. that's what that was. >> i also think afternoon, later this afternoon, was about telling the american public that we, meaning the house democrats, we played by the rules and they outlined in chapter and verse how they played by the rules. but this president did not play by the rules. and he has been worse than any president in history or anybody that they've tried to subpoena or get before the american congress. it makes the richard nixon, you know, 18-minute gap look like nothing here. and they're saying, you know, this is blanket obstruction. you can't claim privilege when you're engaging in obstruction. and they're doing their prebuttal tonight which i think shan was talking about

john mccain provided cover for other republicans who wanted to speak up but maybe were reluctant to do so. >> there are others who don't pay an immediate price or no political price, right? some who are retiring, some who aren't running for another four years, mitt romney, for instance. >> i'm not sure you pay no price. what you're seeing if you're a republican official, if you speak out against the president, you do pay a price. even if you're leaving congress, lamar alexander, for one, retiring from congress, maybe he's got nothing to lose, but maybe he wants to maintain good relations with the republican party, which is now controlled by donald trump. >> phil mattingly, in about an hour and a half, there is another deadline here, more details from the white house defense of the president. are we going to learn something new about what their approach is to this trial? >> the way it has been termed to me, from people who have been working on this process is it is going to be an expansion on this six or seven pages we saw, the response to the summons earlier this weekend. look, i think

senators mccain and graham urged that aid be withheld and why because there's a revolution in egypt after it was appropriated. that wasn't something that was hidden from congress, that was a pretty darn good reason to think that we still want to give aid to this government after this revolution? we aren't saying that aid has never been withheld, that's absurd. i would hope and expect, this is the first time aid has been withheld by a president of the united states to coerce an ally at war to help him cheat in the next election. i think that is a first. what we do here may determine whether it's the last. one other thing about this pause in aid to come of the argument no harm no foul. he got caught, they got the aid what's the big deal? as we heard during the trial, it's not just the aid. the aid is obviously the most important thing as mr. crow mentioned, without it, you can't defend yourself and we'll have testimony about just what kind of military aid the president's withholding -- we also had testimony that it was the fact of the aid itself that was so important to ukraine, the fact th

a sentence or two about john mccain's legacy in presidential politics?uest: i think his legacy is bigger than presidential politics. i think mccain is one of the real heroes of this country for the ages, in many ways. like pat, although they did not agree on a lot of political stuff, but a straight shooter. he was not a politician in that sense. he called them as he saw them, and his service in vietnam is just extraordinary. he was invited to leave the cage, and he wouldn't do it. he said, first one in, first one out. and he was junior to a lot of other captives. and he came back here and in new hampshire, he came back from to zip. no staff, no poll numbers, on the ground convinced people. you could see it in their eyes that they bought his campaign because he was telling the truth. and i gave him a penny. i read that he was superstitious, and i found a penny in the parking lot of the union leader the morning of the election, and i picked it up. he came in just to say thanks for supporting him and i said, i found a penny. can i have that? i don't know wh

i remember senator mccain, god rest his soul, i really do miss senator mccain, by the way, if you go back and watch some interactions i had with him, man, he beat this not out of me. >> i share that. >> i remember him screaming at me one time about a major acquisition program that was not doing well. he screamed to are you holding accountable. who are you going to fire. i said, senator, the problem is it's a comedian and the pentagon >> i will not fire the colonel. it is not his or her fault. that would be wrong. if that person had the authority and responsibility, they would get fired. it is really that simple. because of congressional law, things are being pushed down. they're pushing things down. now, we have to transition to start training our people again to go buy things. we have been training our people not to buy things. not to enter into good contracts. i am going on and on. this is an important subject. i remember as a young engineer, negotiating a big contract for what was in the f-15 satellite program. i was a software engineer. i remember sitting outside the door waiting

there's only going to be one john mccain. we know why she's doing it. what bothers me, she's done worse -- >> it bothers me. >> it's why. we get disrespected all the time. we see politicians. look at the president of the united states. it's nothing compared to what he does. she didn't suppress him. she didn't support him in 2016. she called him out about his treatment of women. now what is she doing? >> that's what bothers me, the hypocrisy bothers me. and it bothers me that it's acceptable and even lauded and applauded among a certain group in our country right now because that is not acceptable. listen, we have to do jobs. you may not like it, that is a perfectly acceptable question and it is not a political question. it is not a biased question. manu raju is among the best and manu raju is not a liberal hack. he is a very well respected seasoned reporter asking a legitimate question. she couldn't answer it. if she can't stand the heat, then get out of the appointed kitchen, she shouldn't be there. >> there was no heat. she's just playing a game and s

i can't believe people would vote for her to fill mccain's seat. as obvious as her and mcconnell's antics are, we get the reason. what can't mcsally handle? what can't mcconnell handle? the facts. in fact, there's a chance that this senate will be the first to refuse to accept the facts delivered from the house, but they also may refuse to access the facts themselves through witnesses. how can you do your job then? what are the criticisms of the case? there are two, all right. now we will look at them, and we will see what it's really about. a senior member of what's really the resistance, people on the right insisting on resisting their duty under law. representative mark meadows, i ask him on the show all the time, and he is welcome to make his case, but today he took to twitter saying -- "no underlying crime, no firsthand witnesses, game over." no firsthand witnesses? representative meadows, meet lev parnas. if you're looking for allegations, crimes from someone who was there who says he was part of all the wrongdoing, there's your boy. he says
